Device technical support
You can use Technical Support to collect SupportSave data (such as, RASLOG, TRACE and so on)
and switch events from Fabric OS, IronWare, and Network OS devices.
To gather technical support information for the Management application server, refer to “Capturing
technical support information” on page 506.
Scheduling technical support information collection
You can capture technical support and event information for up to 50 devices. Technical
SupportSave uses the built-in FTP, SCP, or SFTP server configured on the Management server to
save data. If the switch is running Fabric OS 5.3.X or later, the Management application uses the
SCP server to save data, if configured. To make sure the built-in FTP, SCP, or SFTP server is
configured correctly, refer to
“Configuring an external FTP, SCP, or SFTP server” on page 226.
NOTE
Fabric OS switches must be running Fabric OS 5.2.X or later to collect technical support data.
NOTE
Network OS switches must be running Network OS 2.1.X or later to collect technical support data.
NOTE
The Host must be a managed Brocade HBA.
NOTE
Scheduling technical support data collection is not supported on ESXi Servers.
NOTE
You must have the SupportSave privilege to perform this task. For more information about privileges,
refer to
“User Privileges” on page 1935.
To capture technical support and event information, complete the following steps.
1. Select Monitor > Technical Support > Product/Host SupportSave.
